Section 91 of the provincial Companies Act provides that ....
"the directors of a company are jointly and severally liable
to the clerks, labourers, servants and apprentices thereof for
all debts, not exceeding 6 months' wages, due for services performed
for the company during the period while the directors were acting
as directors. The statute then sets out the conditions when this
liability applies. The federal act applicable to non-profit organizations,
the Canada Corporations Act has a similar section, section 99.
But there is no similar provision in the Societies Act.
